Mobile phone dealers V going direct

Either direct, contact the networks business department or through a reputable broker. Both will do good deals, joint minutes, early upgrades and insurance etc. Do not under any circumstances go through the local chains I.e. Lying scumbags 4u etc...'Just because its on the internet don't believe it 100%'. Abraham Lincoln.

Oh! Forgot to say 40 handsets = about 12k commission for a broker so don't be afraid of making sure that you, the consumer, gets the very best deal......'Just because its on the internet don't believe it 100%'. Abraham Lincoln.

One thing to keep in mind is if a phone goes faulty the phone will have to be taken back to the point of sale, if you're dealing direct with a network you'll probably get better service as they'll still be getting money from you whereas the 3rd party will have had their commission.0

I got 18 last month on our business contract, Ditched orange because of the crazy data charges if you go over your bundle, went with T-Mobile in the end as it was exactly what we wanted for a good price. After getting a few prices from brokers/resellers we decided that we would prefer to go direct to the network.0

I used to run about 100+ mobiles, mixture of Blackberry, ordinary handsets and Windows mobiles. Plus a few mobile dongles.
We used an intermediary, shared minutes and got away with no line rental.
I did use a company on the outskirts of London that I found reputable. If you want a name, please pm me.
Note:- I have no connection with any dealers currently and am not one myself!0
